A story,

The texts that tell it
What this means
A story is a group of accounts. Each carries its own source, its own cast and its own relationships, and where two disagree both stand. Account-level readings — a locator such as “Hesiod, Theogony 886–900”, with that account’s own cast and relationships — are not held yet: 0. The structured data this site imports records stories as subjects and has no equivalent of a narrative account. When accounts are added, reading one will change only the relationships that account asserts. Nothing will be deleted to make them agree.
None held here yet: 0 — an absence in the imported data, not a claim that no text tells it.
